Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, has one who has not performed the obligatory Hajj? Is he given from the zakah?

Answer:
Yes, the one who has not performed the obligatory Hajj falls under the category of the path of Allah; because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
When asked if there is any jihad for women, he said: Yes, a jihad in which there is no fighting: Hajj and 'Umrah.لما سئل هل على النساء من جهاد؟ قال نعم، جهاد لا قتال فيه الحج والعمرة.
Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 9:19
So Hajj is included in jihad, included in the path of Allah. Yes.
